I love all your gear reviews. They are very musical (not just a lot of noodling). You always make reviews that actually highlight what the unit does or does not do, and also give a detailed rundown of the specs. Thanks for all that you do.
Great playing and video Leo! I had CAB M+ and this new device is a big improvement I can tell Two Notes is a step forward and they deliver amazing quality and features packed in small units. I actually still regret selling my CabM. As a cons I would say these devices maybe they are not for everyone just because how much you can tweak ...for others they can be the Graal!
Thank you, I'm really happy that you like the video! Thank you also for sharing you findings and your impressions about the unit! Good point about the tweakabilty...
Premesso che apprezzo (e preferisco) sempre le tue demo perché sempre oneste e tecnicamente approfondite, da cliente ed estimatore di Two Notes, vorrei esprimere anche i miei "2 cents". Avevo acquistato il CAB M appena uscì perché l'ho sempre ritenuto un prodotto innovativo e funzionale e per molti versi migliore della pur agguerrita concorrenza. Quando Two Notes ha rilasciato successivamente il CAB M+, introducendo il virtual (clean) preamp e gli enhancements, fu data la possibilità, ai possessori di CAB M, di aggiornare gratuitamente il proprio device per renderlo a tutti gli effetti un CAB M+. Adesso esce l'Opus che altro non è che un CAB M+ con virtual preamps di nuova concezione (adesso anche dirty). Stop. Stesso identico hardware. A tutti gli effetti un nuovo upgrade software camuffato sotto le mentite spoglie di un nuovo prodotto. Ultimamente non riesco a comprendere le scelte commerciali di Two Notes a partire dal ReVolt, grossa attesa e poca resa. Insomma un buco nell'acqua. L'Opus secondo me non ha motivo di esistere perché, sarebbe potuto essere benissimo un'espansione del CAB M+, magari a pagamento per chi l'avesse voluta, ma stento a credere che possa essere acquistato per l'utilizzo per cui viene pubblicizzato. Se ho ben capito, non c'è possibilità di cambiare preset al volo, tra clean e dirt come il più banale degli amp modeler in commercio ti permette di fare se non con la Torpedo Remote App o girando la manopolina sul device. Avrebbero potuto provvedere con un paio di banalissimi switch se non altro per dargli un senso di diverso rispetto al CAB M+. Per me bocciato su tutta la linea.
Ciao, grazie mille, sono contento che apprezzi i video e grazie anche per aver condiviso cosa pensi del device. Aggiungo solo che una differenza significativa (secondo me) è l'aggiunta del MIDI IN, che consente di integrare l'OPUS in una pedaliera amp-less e di gestire quindi il cambio dei preset / dei pre. Capisco comunque la frustrazione per non avere i pre dell'OPUS anche nel CAB M... Grazie
@@LeoGibsonGtr Ignoravo l’aggiunta del midi in, evidentemente hanno tenuto conto delle richieste/suggerimenti degli utenti. Per quanto riguarda l’Opus in generale, per quanto mi riguarda ha poco senso, almeno per me che ho una miriade di pedali overdrive/preamp di fascia alta. Può averne, al limite, per chi non li ha e vuole risparmiarsi la spesa ma trovo più funzionale a sto punto uno dei tanti amp modeler in commercio, ormai se ne trovano di tutti i prezzi e anche con una resa decente. Tu che ne hai testati tanti, lo sai benissimo. Ancora complimenti per il traguardo dei 30k iscritti ma ne meriti molti di più. Arriveranno.
Great detailed review as always. One slight issue, the line out is balanced not unbalanced. I’m seriously considering replacing my Captor X with this unit. The addition of being able to run Dual mono or a signal bypass on the outputs is probably the most overlooked new feature.
Thanks Léo for sharing your interestings tests, and the quality of the présentations. One question: what about the feeling, the quality of the playing response when playing with this product ?
@RossDaviesTwoNotes does this support class compliant midi over usb-C or only the midi in port? Also wondering if you can activate the onboard tuner with a midi message.
@@MatthasthEdge Thanks for getting in touch. There is no class compliant MIDI over USB, rather the USB-C connection is reserved for data transfer between OPUS and the Remote application only. MIDI can only be received by the unit via the dedicated MIDI in port. At this stage, the tuner cannot be implemented via MIDI, however our engineers are looking to integrate this into our next firmware update. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
@@MarshallorFender Thanks for getting in touch. OPUS can output a Dual Mono signal but not a Stereo one. If you need Stereo operation, 2 x OPUS units would be needed. Let me know if you have any other questions!
I was going to return mine, but they charged me 15% stock fee so I kept. Im glad I did, the form factor is enough to keep tucked away and use with my pedals.
Thank you so much, I'm happy that you appreciate the video! Actually the latency is written in the user manual, therefore I didn't check out myself. Thanks!
i use this with my tonex. i run tonex into this then use opus for noise gate, power amp sim, eq and cabs. Works perfect. i capture my amps with fx send so there is no power amp capture. i let opus do this. Gives me more flexibility. they added three more amps by the way. an orange, tri-rec and dark glass bass amp i believe.
Thanks Leo. Great review as always. While I’m tempted by this unit as the sounds are excellent, the lack of an effects loop is a major omission, especially if playing live. The opus is advertised as an amp in a box so it really ought to have a loop. An easy workaround would be to include some time based effects within the unit alongside the reverbs. I would happily sacrifice 3 or 4 of those reverbs for a couple of delays, chorus, tremolo and phaser. Maybe the next firmware update will address this along 17:29 with the additional amp models.
Hi, thank you I'm happy that you like the video!!! Thank you also for sharing your findings! Yes, it would be nice to have also delays and choruses...but I think it is not gonna happen, as it would need more processing power to run at the same time reverbs delays and choruses...and I don't know if the DSP is powerful enough. Thank you!
Another great review. Enjoyed the demo song as always. Was concerned this thing was too small, but with the Bluetooth capability (like Line6 used to do with the Firehawk FX) I think this could be an all-in-one rig. Would like to hear your opinion on the POD Go update with the new cabinet engine. God bless and rock on 🎸👍😎
Thank you sooo much!!!! Yes, the POD GO update is really nice and useful!!! I think it now match the cab simulations updated with the 3.5 for the other line 6 units...and it's a super useful update...
😀...hi, thank you for your suggestion! I will think about it...even if I think these are two pretty different devices. May I ask you why do you think they are similar?
Hi, thank you for the feedback, Leo. I'm looking for an affordable amp & cab sim solution with quality sound regardless of sound fidelity to the original and other functions. I want to add it to my Boss SY-300 (guitar synthetizer with normal guitar effects). I am currently deciding between Opus and Tonex. What do you say, Leo? Or do you recommend something else?@@LeoGibsonGtr
Hi, I see. I would say: ToneX is a profile loader, where the OPUS is more a modeller. This means that with the ToneX you can load profiles of amps and you are gonna have tones of profiles at your disposal, some of them are free and some have to be payed. The OPUS models few specific amps, and you are linked to Two Notes, I mean you can not load different amps done by other musicians, but you can use only the amps included in the OPUS and some other amps that Two Notes will release in the future. So, ToneX offer much more amp profiles, OPUS is a more closed platform in terms of amp offered. On the other hand the OPUS has some interesting features, for instance you can use a load box connected to a tube amp, then from the load box you can go in the OPUS and then from the opus to a cabinet...I'm not sure that the ToneX has such features.... It really depends...I would say that if you want many amp sims...the ToneX is the right unit to go...if you want just few amp sims, and you want also to couple the unit with your amp....maybe the OPUS is better. Thanks!
Thank you, Leo. I mainly prefer the "feeling" sound quality - "fullness of sound". I don't need tons of ballast. In the other side, I am pleased with the many possibilities of the cab sim, because they can work wonders (it seems so to me). On RUclips videos, I was most impressed by the sound of Opus. Ovela more than e.g. Quad Cortex and other expensive modelers. The question is how it will be in reality (not on videos) :-) However, I am worried about the speed of switching patches, e.g. from clear to distorted sound. And that via MIDI from the Boss SY-300.@@LeoGibsonGtr
Hi, you are welcome and I'm happy that you like the video! Good point...I should do a direct comparison to answer properly...each unit has its specific features....Maybe I'll do a comparison in the coming weeks. Thank you!
Thanks for your video. This unit is very well price €320. Maybe is tonex better unit, but not price. I use opes in combination with hxstomp. I very happy with this unit.
Same thoughts here about the lack of a delay. It seems that two notes did the same mistake of ik multimedia with tonex pedal. Who need a reverb if you don't have a send - return? And with a mono signal... 😅
@@LeoGibsonGtr Our thought process actually stems from our studio background where Spacial FX would be applied post cab emulation for the best results!
I just got one of these based on your review. I can't believe more people aren't talking about this. To my ears, the ToneX, Line6, Quad Cortex, etc. just aren't nearly as good. Maybe it's a feel thing. Or maybe there's a lack of aliasing? The overtones I hear are the best I've heard in a modeler. Thanks for the review!
Hi, your are welcome and I'm happy to have been of some help!!! Thank you also for sharing your experience and your findings!! Actually, I should do more videos about the OPUS... I need time....😀
Hi, thank you for sharing and for your suggestion! My intention was to show you the possibility to load a double IR and to align phase...which is a great option. Of course I understand what you mean. Thank you!
Hello! Have you ever tried the Opus with your tube amps (between the power amp and the speaker)? If you did, does it change the sound/signal that reaches the actual speaker or does it sound as if nothing was connected between the power amp and the speaker? Thanks!
@@LeoGibsonGtr I'm a bit confused now, because I thought that the power amp is connected to the input and the speaker of an amp to the speaker out... Thanks anyway!
Hi, the new version is called Genome and is still in beta...you can try for free if you subscribe to the beta tester Facebook group....I don't know when it will be released. Thank you!
Hello! how are you? I purchased the MOOER PRIME 2 “pedal”, it is simple and has great tone quality! If possible, I suggest a review! best regsrds! you are fantastic! 👍👍👍👍
Hey Leo. Which do you prefer for Sound quality and feel. The boss ir2, ox stomp or the Opus. Ill be playing these with my Bluguitar Amp1 into a 2x12 cabinet. Please help.
Hi, it's a pretty hard choice....I should do a video comparison to answer properly. Each ones has it's pros and cons...I would exclude the ox stomp for the price...the Opus has also the Genome to accompany the overall solution, which is very nice...where the BOSS has a very nice Plexi sound (that I like)...
Ciao, personalmente non uso gain troppo elevato, quindi di fatto il noise difficilmente mi disturba. Su questa unità non ho trovato noise eccessivo, o maggiore di altre....ma in effetti non ho appunto testato settaggi con gain spinti. Grazie del messaggio e scusa se non riesco ad essere più preciso
Hi, I didn't test it as it is reported in the user manual: - 2.2ms with an IR Length at 40ms - 3.5ms with an IR Length at 100ms - 4.8ms with an IR Length at 200ms
Hi, yes you can, as the OPUS has MIDI. You have 2 options: just a midi controller (here there are many and I think you can get whatever you want) or a midi controller and switcher. As MIDI and Switcher I have the BOSS ES8....but I have never test different switcher...so I don't know if it is the best one or not or if there is something newer and more advanced. Thank you!
Ciao, difficile a dirsi...dovrei fare un video dedicato per poter rispondere con cognizione di causa. Magari nelle prossime settimane ci penso. Grazie del suggerimento!
If you could choose the best Cab simulations between the Opus or The Ox stomp to pair with Tonex di captrures...which one will you chose? I don't care about Opus preamps cause Tonex sounds much better
Hi, I don't have the OX, but the lack of midi in the OX ... would make me buy the OPUS...I really don't understand why UAFX put bluetooth but no midi...it is really a bummer for me....
Hi, I didn't test it as it is reported in the user manual: - 2.2ms with an IR Length at 40ms - 3.5ms with an IR Length at 100ms - 4.8ms with an IR Length at 200ms
I was hoping you would make it sound inspiring, as i'm yet to hear a realistic amp tone review of it. I feel there's quite a few flexible options that could have been added. i have found the Friedman pre-amp pedal more suitable for me so far and probably what i'd drop my cash on.
Lack of even a single footswitch isn't a con? Is this a desktop only unit? It basically can't be used live if you can't even switch from clean to distorted sound, right? Without messing about with your phone and Bluetooth that is.
It obviously isn't meant to be used as a straight up amp replacement. It's meant to be used as pedal platform. You want a clean sound, roll down your volume at the guitar or turn off your overdrive pedal. If you want to use an full on amp, get a different Two Notes product.
Hi, honestly in an amp-les set up I would use MIDI to switch the sounds of the OPUS and the ones of other devices...to me MIDI is more useful than foot switches...but of course, that's my point of view....
Looks like Your review is not full because, instead of showing us Opus original cab simulation, You present Yours IRs! I am NOT interested in collection of Your private IRs, I'm interested in product's sounds!
Hi, thank you for sharing! I'm sorry for that and of course I accept your criticism... Let me say that the possibility to load two IRs and to put them in phase is pretty unique...and that's what I have tested in the video...I don't think I'm alone to use this solution. Nevertheless, thank you for your suggestion!
Leo, I think that one of the strongest points of your review is its consistency and that you use your own IRs instead of the built ins, it allows a better perception of the differences between guitar gears... as they say... . ceteris paribus
I love all your gear reviews. They are very musical (not just a lot of noodling). You always make reviews that actually highlight what the unit does or does not do, and also give a detailed rundown of the specs. Thanks for all that you do.

Hi, I didn't test it as it is reported in the user manual:
- 2.2ms with an IR Length at 40ms
- 3.5ms with an IR Length at 100ms
- 4.8ms with an IR Length at 200ms
@@LeoGibsonGtr Thanks !!!
You are welcome!
I was hoping you would make it sound inspiring, as i'm yet to hear a realistic amp tone review of it. I feel there's quite a few flexible options that could have been added. i have found the Friedman pre-amp pedal more suitable for me so far and probably what i'd drop my cash on.
Hi, thank you for sharing and I'm sorry if the sound was not inspiring.
@@LeoGibsonGtr you make everything sound amazing usually Leo. don't take it personally. You're a very talented man.
Thank you so much!!!
Lack of even a single footswitch isn't a con? Is this a desktop only unit? It basically can't be used live if you can't even switch from clean to distorted sound, right? Without messing about with your phone and Bluetooth that is.
It obviously isn't meant to be used as a straight up amp replacement. It's meant to be used as pedal platform. You want a clean sound, roll down your volume at the guitar or turn off your overdrive pedal. If you want to use an full on amp, get a different Two Notes product.
Or use MIDI?
Hi, honestly in an amp-les set up I would use MIDI to switch the sounds of the OPUS and the ones of other devices...to me MIDI is more useful than foot switches...but of course, that's my point of view....
Looks like Your review is not full because, instead of showing us Opus original cab simulation, You present Yours IRs! I am NOT interested in collection of Your private IRs, I'm interested in product's sounds!
Hi, thank you for sharing!
I'm sorry for that and of course I accept your criticism...
Let me say that the possibility to load two IRs and to put them in phase is pretty unique...and that's what I have tested in the video...I don't think I'm alone to use this solution.
Nevertheless, thank you for your suggestion!
Leo, I think that one of the strongest points of your review is its consistency and that you use your own IRs instead of the built ins, it allows a better perception of the differences between guitar gears... as they say... . ceteris paribus
Hi Leo. How does the quality of sound from unit, not functionality compare to products like quad cortex, tone x and tone master
